ftaTly plau publishers can adopt with-
XtaTout loss. As our earnings are all

A Fair Election.
The importance of haying a fair
election bn the 5th of November
must be apparent,, to alh The follow-
trict by the editor of the Cedar
Town Express we think is a good
one, and that or some other plan for
preventing repeaters and illegal vo
ting should be adopted:
“There should be appointed in
each county as many men from each
militia district as there are districts in
each county. These men must be
acquainted with all the voters of their
respective districts. At each voting
place in the county there must be
ono of these differe t district men
present; thus, every district in the
caunty will have a repo--entalivo
from its oa-ii, ami one from all the
others. By this means illegal voters
and repeaters can be defeated. Also,
there should be at each district an al
phabetical list of all the .polls and de
faulters in the county. This can be
obtained from the Tax Receiver’s
^Independents.”;
The views of the News db -Gourier
on the subject of Independent'cam
data have already been given plainly
enough; but the pressing importance
6i the subject at this time demands
that the alarm signal be kept con
»>lantly sounding in the ears of the
people. What is an Independent
candidate ? He is auy candidate for
office who is not nominated by eith
aConve.i.ior, <-r primary election
the Democratic or Republican parties.
It matters not if lie is Straight-out
Di i.iotrin -.1 e strictest s ;iue of
tin- word in every other respect, it
he is :ut.t in.; tor >tfi>e outsitl-s of the
party ho is an Independent, and us
such is arraying himself umoug the
enemies of tlio State of South Caro- I
lira.
This may sccin strong language,
but look at the political situation to
day and see if it is uot justified. The
Radical party, that hand of thieves
and hummers, and their dupes and
victims, l-as abandoned all opposition
to the Democratic candidates for

A Card From Col. Billupa
tit
Morganton, Ga., Oct. 2d, ’78.
Editor Franklin Register :
Dear Sir: I am informed that
some persons in Franklin county are
circulating a letter or other writing,
in which it is charged that I have ta
ken the benefit of the Bankrupt Act;
that I do not give in property to the
Tax Receiver at itareal value; that I
do not pay, or that I try to evade the
payment of debts, and probably that
1 am guilty of other things of like
character. I prouonneo each and ev-
<ry such charge a base, malicious
falsehood. Respectfully yours, Aa,
J. A Billups.

Col. C. J. Welb-jm, of Union
county, writes a patriotic letter to the
Madison J/oiue Journal, giving an
account of Col. Billups speech at
BUiirsville from which we make the
following extracts:
“ As the representative of the Or
ganized Democracy cf■ the District,
CoL Billups discussed the principles
and-policy of the party and some of
the measures which he thong t
would promote the public interest,
touching occasionally upon topics not
purely political, but yet interesting
to the people. The speech was
throughout practical, and sensible
and sometimes eloquent to a degree
rarely excelled. The people were
evidently much pleased with him.
They are enlisted in his behalf and
intrnd to elect him. Those present
who had not previously expressed
themselves, dcclarcd hcartily for him,
and many who were thought to be
for Speer announced their determina
tion to voto for Col. Billups. In a

Correspondence.
Blairsvillk, Oct. 5th, 1878.
Editor Southern Banner-
Dear Sir :—On the 29th of August
I addressed a letter, of which the fol
lowing in substance, a copy, to
Emory Spenr, Esq. One week later,
I wrote another letter to him from
Dahlonegn, in which I stated, that as
for lack of time I had failed to make
a copy of my former letter, I would
thank him to hand the original to
yon for publication.
Truly Yours, &c,
J. A. Billups.
Jeftxbson, August 29,1878,
Emobt Spexr, Esq., Athens—
Dear Sir:—I have been so constant
ly on the road, except when engaged
in speaking, since the receipt, on the
20tb, of yonr favor the 24th
that I have not had opportunity to
reply .before to^lay.
Your appointments am so nomer-
ana aad ea the list famished me,
there are so many erasures and inter
lineations, I found some difficulty in
getting them correctly before me.
You are aware that sinee the pres
ent incumbent has occupied the bench
of the Western Circuit, be has al
lowed a recess, at noon, of only one
hour and a halt, which is not suffi
cient to admit of a joint discussion
I presume the knowledge of that
fact induced you to change some of
yonr appointments from the days I
was announced to address the people,
to the next succeeding days, as I see
it has-been done in several instances
on your list, now before m«. It wil'
not he in my power to bo present
at many of the places mentioned Ly
you, at the times indicated, or at any
other time. If I should he able to
attend to. any of your appointments, table
I will he glad to discuss with you
on terms usual on such occasions, aud
if you find it convenient to attend
any ol miue you shall certainly have
an opportunity to be heard on similar
terms.
My arrangements for canvassing
the District, were trade before your
letter was received. My appoint
ments for the middlo and lower
counties are published in the papers
of those counties, and those for the
Upper counties, many of which you
have recently canvassed alone and
without notice- to me, are announced
in the papers circulating in that sec*
tion andT>y posters. I regret that I
have not at command a complete‘list
to furnish you. s '
Respectfully yours, <&c.,
’’ J.'A Billups.
Mr. Stephens is quoted as having
•aid, “party organization is always
proper aud necessary when unity of
action is essential for the success oi
principles.” This statement, of
course, leaves the just and natural
conclusion, that he mainUins, that
there are time# aud ciremnstancua.
ecu party organization or unity of
action is not essential to the success
of principles It is hard tor us to be
lieve that Mr. Stephens ever gave ut
terance to such a falaciotis idea, for
as a great statesman he must .ailrnr
that the success of party or political
principles are only attainable through
unity of action. Iu cou itrics were
popular suffrage is permitted parties
are unavoidable. That which gives
origin to parties, is the taci men will
differ iu opinion as to the principles
upon which government should be
administered. Theu it mustm eessa-
rily follow that those who hold alike
as to these great principles must act
unitedly, otherwise they will never
succeed in carrying out or putting in
force their principles.
Parly organization, then, is the only
means of uniting their strength and
is absolutely necessary in . rder to
bring about that unity ..,lion es
sential for the success of principles.
If a man believes his party to be
right, then to stand by and support
his party is simply to maintain and
support the true theory, the sure and
sound principles upon which he be
lieves the government should be ad
ministered. Those who pursue a dif
ferent course and announce them
selves candidates independent of the
may exert in the tuiare .in the. *d'.«

The moral and physical influence of a
united* Democracy b euh CornV
and Precinct would sweep the Radi
cals forever from the State. Two
years without official pap, two years
without even the crumbs to bo pick
ed np b trial justices’ offices, to say
notiung of the custards and plum-
puddings in the shape of sheriffs’ and
clerks’ fees and county c i omission-
ers’ pickings—and the ravenous po
litical crew that so long fattened on
the plunder of South Carolina, would
be starved to death or driven mto ex
ile. The leaders gone, the party
would fall to pieces, and the Demo
crats could theu afford to fight out
their own little squabbles without the
fear of bringing rub upon the State,
But let the Democrats divide now,
aud what is the consequence? In
the lower counties the Radicals will
elect ttieir own ticket, and in the up
per counties they will hold the bal
ance of power, and choose those Dem
ocratic candidates who will best serve
their own bad purposes Their influ
ence would thus be, iu a measure,
preserved; a nucleus of political cor*
ruption would thus he retained iu tl.e

Mr. Speer and his friends are mak
ing much to do about Col. Bell and
Dr. Carlton being so badly treated in
the late Gainesville Convention.’ In-
deed, these Independents seorn to be
really grieved that the e gentlemen
were so ruthlessly treated. Aprotpo
this questionable sort of friendship,
we quote the following incident of ex-
President Abraham Lincoln, the inimi-
jokej.” Oq one occasion,
when he had been defeated in some
political contest, his friends were mak
ing quite a fusswver it. and declaring
him to have been shamefully treated.
Mr. Lincoln, not regatding the defeat
in the same light as did his friends,
remarked: “D—ra the friend that
thirks more of a man than he does
of himself.
should look upon ami deal
with them as if they were actually
Radicals. Yet that manifestly is the
only sate oourse for the Democracy
to pursue. The object of the prescut
campaign is to complete the regener
ation ot the State—to turn out of of-
Coe every man who has allowed him-
self to rest under political obligation
Radicals, and not to let any man to
get into office who is willing to avail
himself of Radical support. This can
only be accomplished by a united and
solid Democracy, and lie who at this
critical juncture does aught that lends
to the disintegration of the only party
to which the State can look tor its fi
nal rescue from the thieves, should be
regarded as neither better nor worse
than the political harpies of whom lie
makes himself a most efficient ally.
